| HD-DVD Officially Dead Although Toshiba had announced that they would discontinue the development of HD-DVD, there is no clear indication that the production of standard DVD will cease immediately. I reckon SD DVD will continue to be produced. But the question is how lo... | |

| XLO Signature S2-2.2 Balanced Interconnect Hello John, I am well aware you have tried and owned much better cables which cost considerably more than the ones I had, so I am not sure if you would get better bass performance from the XLO with regards to your existing cables. Nevertheless, I ... | |
| Amp Designs That Are Able To Drive 4/2 Ohms Load Gs5556, thanks for posting. That had clarified most of the doubts I had previously. | |
| Amp Designs That Are Able To Drive 4/2 Ohms Load My one tube amp is stable at 2 ohms, but the same wattage output as 8 ohms. My other mono block tubes are stable to 1.4 ohms but put out the same wattage as they do at 16 ohms or 70 volts.Pardon my ignorance. How do you know your tube amp is stabl... | |
| Review: Analysis Plus Solo Crystal Oval 8 Speaker cable Nice review. I was close to purchasing the Analysis Plus Oval 8's sometime late last year but settled for something else instead. I have somehow expected that the differences between the Kimber 8PR and the top of the range Oval 8 in the Analysis P... | |
| XLO Signature S2-2.2 Balanced Interconnect Thanks Hobby. Describing the sonics of cables is one of the most difficult part without actually making comparisons to others. Among all cables that I had, I find it the most difficult to describe the sound characteristics of Wireworld cables sinc... | |
| crooked speaker stands? Reubent cannot desribe it more perfectly. For self-assembled stands, issues like you have encountered are bound to happen. In most cases, the installation by the user is the cause (in screwing the plates to the vertical pillar) but sometimes minor... | |
| crooked speaker stands? If I read correctly, it appears that the only issue is the top plate is not a perfect square piece. Is my assumption correct? If the circumference of your speakers is larger than the top plate itself, I guess this issue is negligible since the min... | |
| I need new music.... I too like Fourplay and Earl Klugh for light jazz. My other favourites include Acoustic Alchemy and Pat Metheny. I was listening to a lot of Metheny's works recently. I would be glad if others could recommend some other artists as well. | |
| Are Sound Waves Able To Penetrate Canvas Painting? Sol322,I haven't done anything at the moment but will most likely use some nice acoustically transparent fabric(thinking of quilts) to cover some absorption panels. The bare panels do bring some positive listening experience in my room. I also hav... | |
| YOUR Favorite Bookshelf/Monitor below $500 01-19-08: BeerdraftB&W 805 N. you may find a used one in that price range.I would want a pair too if the N805 can be had at $500, probably a few pairs. | |
| Are Sound Waves Able To Penetrate Canvas Painting? Sol322, I get your idea about leaving an opening between the absorption panels and the canvas painting. The painting cannot be framed in this case and furthermore the gap between the wall and painting may sacrifice aesthetics. Also, I am not too s... | |
| Are Sound Waves Able To Penetrate Canvas Painting? Thanks for all responses. Now I have something to think about. | |
| Are Sound Waves Able To Penetrate Canvas Painting? Thanks for the thought Reubent. I've thought of all options, and only quilts and canvas art fit my applications. Art on canvas look nicer than on quilts although the latter are a more suitable material. I suppose it is not feasible to place absorp... |
